After league starting with Kay's build for 4 leagues (and min/maxing in 2 of those leagues) I decided to take a break from Spectres in 3.11.

I'm looking at coming back to this build tomorrow, but honestly, with the offering and block nerfs, my biggest concern is survivability. (Sentries were busted before, so I'm assuming even with their nerfs they're still gonna be insane dps).

How tanky is the build looking after the offering/block nerfs? I absolutely hate dying.

I am in the same boat. This league I am building tankier since clear speed has never been a problem for me with spectres since Betrayal. I am skipping all the cluster jewels and stacking life. Also going to stick to ranged Spectre leaning towards Baranite Thaumaturge.

Hey Vail, I remember chatting a lot with you in previous leagues! I was thinking the same thing, stack more life and go with a ranged/tanky spectre, although meat shield is a thing too. I remember watching a vid Kay did on the Baranites awhile back. I'll have to revisit that.

And I know Kingsmaker/AG are a big investment, but they really do help with survivability too, so I'll probably go that route eventually, but I want to be tankier, even if it means a little slower clear.

If you are curious I am looking at something like this as far as skill points go but will likely make small changes and adjust as needed. https://pastebin.com/JRKW7HKg . I was running something close to this last league but wasn't huge fan of harvest so didn't play long enough to optimize gear(crafting is not my thing).

I've read spectre sharing via pvp won't be possible in heist between SSF and non-ssf leagues but what about standard to temp league? either way anybody keen on sharing once they get them tomorrow?

Hello, I'm looking for a league starter build for Heist, it's my second league and I'm not very familiar with PoE so I've a question.
This stuff is also viable in 3.12 or needs some changes ?
I feel like I may like this build but I don't wanna waste my time with an out-of-date build.

Thanks for your answers and good new league.

Hey there, exile. Kay's guide is absolutely top-tier and she is working hard to update the build, guide and POB's in preparation for launch tomorrow. If you're in search of a good league starter, look no further.

Oh dear necro comrades, I'm n doubt. My plan was to farm blight maps with RS, now i dunno if i should go spectres again. Have Vortex occu in mind for easy bossing + delve. Any thoughts about new spectre and setup dor Blight content especially ?

For blighted maps I don't expect much to change... The damage is still plenty even after the nerf but there are also plenty of other spectre options that will also melt blight.

It will still be fucking tanky if you go for block without GB and reach 50% spell block.
If you check my forum history you can see the list with easily available def options while still reaching 2-2,5 million dps per spectre, maybe even more.

Im only sad about the Divine Flesh nerf though, it was really strong but good luck getting enough chaos res without Harvest anyway and you can still get to 88/90% max chaos res kinda easy with a cluster jewel.

That said im thinking about going for golems this league, just for some change after 4x Spectres in a row. :-D

May i just ask 1 question ?

Can slave driver still be played?

Sure but they will start dying at some point in higher red maps.
